The sky was completely bright.

It was already the morning of the second day.

Li Yun moved his body, which was sore and stiff from sitting cross-legged for fourteen hours, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

The total number of cognitive points on his panel had reached 11.48 million.

It had exceeded ten million.

Continuing to enhance 【Reversing Fate Art】 was definitely enough.

Li Yun quickly got up, got himself something to eat, and after filling his stomach, he sat down again.

He directly enhanced 【Reversing Fate Art】.

As expected—

【Reversing Fate Art】 going from the Proficient Realm to the Minor Accomplishment Realm actually deducted a full ten million cognitive points from him.

However, the harvest was also quite astonishing.

This Realm seemed to be a crucial one.

After entering the Minor Accomplishment Realm, the mysteries of 【Reversing Fate Art】 that surged into his mind were at least three times more than the combined total from the Initial, Basic, and Proficient Realms.

Not only did it deepen Li Yun's understanding of 【Reversing Fate Art】, but it also brought about a nearly fundamental change in the 【Reversing Fate Art】 he cultivated.

After just the first formal cultivation session, which took an hour, his Aptitude directly climbed from Fourth-Grade Lower and rushed straight to Third-Grade Lower.

It had improved by a full grade level!

Third-Grade Aptitude was considered top-tier among ordinary people. Even without the System, Li Yun's Aptitude alone would be enough for him to achieve minor success in the Outer Sect.

At least, becoming a True Qi Realm Acquired Martial Artist in this lifetime was absolutely no problem.

However, Li Yun quickly discovered that the burden 【Reversing Fate Art】 at the Minor Accomplishment Realm placed on his body was far less intense than before, and cultivating it twice in a single day was completely fine.

So, after resting for a while.

He cultivated it a second time.

The result was exceptionally pleasant; his Third-Grade Lower Aptitude actually improved again, reaching Third-Grade Middle!

His condition was vastly better than before, by who knows how many times.

From the initial Fifth-Grade Aptitude to the current Third-Grade Middle, this was truly reversing fate and changing destiny.

Furthermore, after his Aptitude continuously improved, Li Yun truly felt a faint, subtle sublimation in his body, a sublimation at the level of life essence.

Unfortunately, this feeling was too weak.

And Li Yun, after all, was only a Body Refining Realm Martial Artist, so he didn't have much knowledge about something as profound as life essence.

If he were asked to describe exactly what kind of sublimation it was, he wouldn't be able to articulate it.

But there was one thing.

When he resumed cultivating the Primordial Chaos Stance to consolidate his cultivation, he was surprised to find that the upper limit of the Body Tempering Thirteenth Level had been broken.

After cultivating diligently for a while.

The Primordial Chaos True Intent drew in all sorts of spiritual energy to temper his body, refining it thoroughly inside and out, forming another transformation. His strength actually increased by a full third!

Three thousand catties of strength became four thousand catties!

His physique was even more resilient and solid, with a feeling of being unbreakable.

He casually picked up a small Stone from the ground, and with a slight squeeze, he easily crushed the Stone into a large number of small fragments.

If combined with the soft force of Coiling Silk Force, the Stone could even be crushed into fine sand.

He then practiced all the martial arts he currently knew, one by one.

Li Yun came to a conclusion.

Very strong!

Infuriatingly strong!

The improvement in his foundational cultivation nearly doubled his overall strength.

If he were given another chance to fight Wu Yuekong, he was confident he could kill Wu Yuekong within three moves, leaving Wu Yuekong absolutely no chance!

So, Li Yun stopped holding back.

After calculating the remaining cognitive points on his panel, he immediately got to work and continued to sublimate the Coiling Silk Force, Flying Star Step, Tiger Subduing Fist, and Eagle Claw Skill, which had not yet been sublimated.

It only consumed 400,000 cognitive points.

These several High-Grade Body Refining Realm martial arts had all been cultivated into a martial art True Meaning.

This significantly increased his overall combat power again.

Using that unfortunate fellow Wu Yuekong as a reference, where before he could kill him in three moves if they fought again, now two moves were enough. He could basically achieve a quick first move followed by a direct killing blow in the second!

Thus.

The martial arts he currently knew, Gale Wind Swordplay and Zhenyue Mountain Sword, were still only at the Initial Realm.

But these two martial arts were Innate level martial arts.

Without Innate True Qi, even if the Realm was improved, they couldn't be used for the time being, so Li Yun decided not to consider them for now.

He would save the remaining cognitive points first.

His next goal was only one: to continue gaining cognitive points by observing the ancient sword.

After all, based on the terrifying 10-fold coefficient for improving the Realm of 【Reversing Fate Art】, further enhancing 【Reversing Fate Art】 to the Mastery Realm would very likely require a small fortune in cognitive points.

This was indeed a bit terrifying.

However, he soon became pleasantly surprised again.

His Aptitude had reached Third-Grade Middle, and the efficiency of observing the ancient sword had increased from 200 points per second directly to 500 points per second, which was 2.5 times the original.

With this efficiency increase, holding the ancient sword would yield 1.8 million in an hour!

Observing for ten hours a day would be 18 million.

A small fortune, which was only six days, not long, and very promising!

Having nothing else to do.

Li Yun didn't plan to wander around aimlessly anymore, so he simply observed the ancient sword in Carefree Cloud Abode.

It wasn't until evening.

Zhang Chu, that guy, sneaked in slyly.

As soon as he entered the door, he started making a fuss.

"Good heavens, Boss (Lǎodà)... your residence here is so secluded, it makes me envious. Just look at my eyes, they're red..."

Li Yun glanced at him, holding the ancient sword, and got up.

"That's pink eye, it can't be cured, it's a terminal illness, you have to dig out your eyeballs... Otherwise, shall I do it for you?"

Zhang Chu immediately shrank his neck.

"Holy crap... Boss (Lǎodà), you can't be this ruthless, can you? I was just joking with you, but you want to dig out my eyeballs. Can we still play together?"

"And I even blocked a big trouble for you."

Li Yun was momentarily stunned: "Blocked a big trouble for me? What trouble?"

Zhang Chu spread his hands: "What else could it be? Huang Yiyi, of course. Last night she went to Courtyard 95 of the Ren Branch to find you, and I led the other disciples to drive her away."

"Oh, you mean her..."

"Yeah!"

"Sorry, I don't know her!"

Zhang Chu: "..."

He almost choked to death.

Damn it, this dog Boss (Lǎodà)'s skin was really thick, pretending with others was one thing, but still pretending with him.

"Don't look at me like that, I really don't know her... Hmm?"

As soon as he finished speaking.

Li Yun's face turned extremely gloomy. He turned his head and saw that Huang Yiyi had actually appeared at the arched doorway connecting to the front courtyard.

"Li Yun, I haven't even congratulated you on becoming the Ren Division Chief Disciple yet. I didn't expect you to move to this place. The environment here is really good!"

Zhang Chu suddenly turned his head and immediately jumped up.

He roared angrily, exasperated: "Huang Yiyi, did you actually track me?"
